I heard it's possible to get birth control for free, but I don't know where I could get it from. I'm in college, and I don't know if the health center would give them out, because they sell it. Any ideas?  |
Do try and talk with the health center at school. My now DIL had no insurance, also had awful periods and got pills from them. I don't know if she had to pay for them or not. Or maybe a reduced amount? I wonder if there are health centers in the community that help. Our area gives free shots to people, especially children for school. They do it on a certain schedule. Perhaps you can talk to someone there?
